Can someone help me identify this muffler? I could not find a part number on it. Reviewing pictures online, the 914-6, early 911, and even 912 look very similar. Are there measurements I can take to confirm? I don't have an assembled car to trial fit it on.
Did I mention it is hanging about 10 feet up on a wall with headers attached? Not certain if the headers are meant for the muffler. I can pull down if necessary.  |

The date code is usually located on the bottom... on the side opposite the outlet tip and near the inlet pipe
Your muffler looks in pretty good shape so you should be able to find the numbers. |

Great info John ,the 911 muffler is a non fit due to tail pipe angle with a stock rear valance , PO supplied 911 one had the conversion pipe welded on but rather large sorted a stainless tip modified to fit ,looks overkill but not loud .  Not sure about the crimped bend on the pic supplied as not seen that before ,however if this one Dennis has proves be ok and the factory chrome tip fits it should be fine . Not like you can pick and choose on a genuine unit unless you have a very fat cash supply ,don't expect to many NOS units around ? . Cheers. |
